This is the "super saloon" any engine in any vehicle class, ideal for those who want to experiment with various engine & body shell combinations. If you want you can even fit 2 engines!

The engine or engines must be of a minimum or combined cc of 1421 and of a free maximum cc capacity, multi-valve engines are allowed. There are unlimited tuning modifications allowed, the engine / gearbox / transaxle / axle need not be original or fitted in its original position. Class7cars consist of a multitude of body shell types with 1.8, 2.O SOHC & DOHC/V6/V8 engines mainly midmounted or twin 1.0 / 1. I / 1.2 motorbike engine & gearbox units chain or gear driven onto a common drive shaft. This is the most spectacular of the saloon classes and is very popular with the spectators for its action packed racing. Bodushells used can be Peugeots Novas, Fiestas Renault Clios or even old or new-style Minis with the engines and gearboxes not necessarily being of the type originally fitted or even in the position the original vehicle manufacturer intended or imagined.
